Long Lasting Choice 7.5 kW Metal Shredder for Scrap Metal Recycling and Volume

Product Specification

Product Overview

The Q43P-600A Metal Shredder is a compact, low-speed industrial shredding machine designed for processing light and medium-duty metal scrap. Equipped with 20 hardened blades, a 610 × 550 mm shredding chamber and a 7.5 kW motor, it delivers a processing capacity of approximately 1–2 m³/h.

Operating at only 16 rpm, the machine provides high torque with controlled material feeding. Compared with high-speed crushing equipment, its low-speed design produces less noise, heat and dust while reducing unnecessary power consumption. The processed material size is approximately 30 × 30 mm, helping recycling companies reduce scrap volume, improve storage efficiency and prepare materials for sorting, baling or further recycling.

With an overall size of 2160 × 840 × 1600 mm, the Q43P-600A is especially suitable for recycling facilities with limited installation space or moderate processing requirements.

Cause

Loose and irregular metal scrap is difficult to store, transport and feed into downstream recycling equipment. Large-volume waste occupies valuable factory space, increases transportation frequency and often causes unstable feeding during sorting or recycling.

Common challenges include:

• High storage and transportation costs
• Irregular scrap sizes that are difficult to handle
• Inefficient manual cutting or dismantling
• Unstable feeding into balers and separation systems
• Excessive dust, noise and energy consumption from high-speed crushers

Solution

The Q43P-600A scrap metal shredder reduces bulky metal waste into more uniform pieces through low-speed, high-torque cutting. Its 300 mm diameter blades grip, tear and shear the material inside the shredding chamber.

The compact 510 × 720 mm feeding mouth supports convenient loading, while the 30 mm thick blades provide reliable cutting performance. The resulting 30 × 30 mm pieces are easier to collect, sort, transport and feed into subsequent recycling equipment.

Key buyer benefits include:

• Compact structure with a small installation footprint
• Low-speed operation for stable and controlled shredding
• Approximately 1–2 m³/h processing capacity
• Uniform output suitable for downstream recycling
• Reduced scrap volume and transportation costs
• Lower motor power for economical daily operation
• Customizable configuration for different raw materials

Specifications

Application

The Q43P-600A industrial metal shredder can be used in scrap yards, metalworking factories, recycling centers and waste-processing facilities. Typical applications include:

• Light sheet metal offcuts
• Aluminum scrap
• Thin steel waste
• Metal cans and containers
• Small metal components
• Production leftovers
• Mixed recyclable metal waste

The actual processing capacity and output size depend on the material type, thickness, shape, density and feeding method. Material samples or photos should be evaluated before final machine selection.

How It Works

Material is loaded through the hopper and enters the shredding chamber. The low-speed cutting system pulls the scrap between the blades, where it is torn, compressed and sheared into smaller pieces. The processed material is then discharged from the bottom of the machine.

Low-speed rotation provides strong cutting torque and reduces sudden impact on the machine. This operating principle supports stable performance, lower noise and easier maintenance compared with conventional high-speed crushing systems.

How To Choose

Before selecting a metal shredder, buyers should confirm the following information:

• Type and composition of the scrap
• Maximum material dimensions and thickness
• Required hourly processing capacity
• Desired output size
• Feeding and discharge method
• Local voltage, frequency and phase
• Required downstream equipment

For 1–2 m³/h of light or medium-duty scrap, the Q43P-600A offers a compact and economical solution. Larger, thicker or harder materials may require a higher-power shredder with a wider chamber and stronger cutting system.

FAQ

What materials can the Q43P-600A shred?

It is mainly designed for light and medium-duty metal scrap. Please provide material photos, dimensions and thickness so our engineers can confirm suitability.

Is the output size always exactly 30 × 30 mm?

The nominal output size is approximately 30 × 30 mm. Actual results may vary according to the material shape, thickness, hardness and cutting configuration.

Can the machine process hardened or very thick steel?

The standard model is not intended for every type of heavy or hardened steel. A larger shredder may be recommended after reviewing the material details.

Can the voltage be customized?

Yes. The motor and electrical system can be configured according to the buyer’s local voltage, frequency and three-phase power supply.

Can feeding and discharge conveyors be supplied?

Yes. Feeding conveyors, discharge conveyors and other auxiliary equipment can be added according to the production layout and automation requirements.
